Why does a comet look like a star with a tail?

A comet appears like a star with a tail due to its glowing nucleus and the long, trailing coma formed when it approaches the Sun. As the comet gets closer, solar radiation and solar wind cause the ice and dust in the nucleus to vaporize and release gas and particles, creating a bright cloud (coma) around the nucleus and a tail that points away from the Sun. This tail is a result of the solar wind pushing the released materials, giving the comet its distinctive appearance.
